SS 31 40 mg
SS 31 also known as elamipretide is a mitochondria targeted peptide researched for its role in protecting and restoring mitochondrial function. It is designed to improve cellular energy production reduce oxidative stress and enhance tissue resilience. SS 31 is commonly used in health longevity and recovery focused environments where cellular efficiency and mitochondrial integrity are prioritised rather than direct performance stimulation.

Properties and Effects
- Supports mitochondrial energy production
- Reduces oxidative stress at the cellular level
- Improves cellular resilience and recovery capacity
- May support cardiovascular and muscular endurance
- Does not act on hormonal or endocrine pathways
Mechanism of Action
SS 31 selectively targets the inner mitochondrial membrane where it binds to cardiolipin which is essential for efficient electron transport and ATP production. By stabilising cardiolipin SS 31 reduces reactive oxygen species formation and improves mitochondrial efficiency. This leads to enhanced cellular energy output and reduced oxidative damage.
Recommended Use
SS 31 is typically used in metabolic recovery or longevity focused protocols. Consistent use is important to support ongoing mitochondrial protection. Adequate nutrition hydration and recovery practices enhance effectiveness. Proper reconstitution accurate handling and sterile technique are essential.
Safety and Side Effects
SS 31 is generally well tolerated in research settings. Possible side effects may include mild injection site irritation headache or temporary fatigue. It does not suppress natural testosterone and does not aromatise. Long term human data is limited. Individuals with cardiovascular or metabolic conditions should use caution. Not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Special Notes
SS 31 is not an anabolic steroid growth hormone or SERM. Its benefits are cellular and metabolic rather than endocrine driven. Results are cumulative and depend on consistency and overall health status. Health monitoring is recommended during extended mitochondrial support protocols.
Recommended dosage
- 5 mg to 10 mg, once or twice a week
- Some users increase up to 15 mg per dose, based on tolerance
Timing of doses
- Take once or twice weekly
- Commonly taken in the morning
- Can be taken with or without food
Practical guidance
SS 31 is typically used for mitochondrial and cellular support, so consistent daily use is more important than timing. Start at the lower dose to assess response and increase gradually if needed. Adequate hydration nutrition and regular activity support best results.

Using Peptide Injectable Vials

STEP 1:VERIFY VIAL INTEGRITY
Inspect both the peptide vial and the bacteriostatic water vial carefully. Check that the caps and seals are intact and have not been tampered with. The contents should appear clear, with no visible particles, cloudiness, or contamination before proceeding.

IMPORTANTINSPECT THE LID
Check both the peptide vial and the bacteriostatic water vial. Locate the small arrows stamped into the gold seal, which indicate the correct opening point. The seal should be opened from the side the arrows point to for proper removal.

STEP 2:LIFT PROTECTIVE CAPS
Gently lift the clear plastic protective cap from the top of the vial. This exposes the gold aluminium safety seal underneath. Take care not to bend or damage the metal seal while removing the plastic cap.

STEP 3:BREAK OFF SAFETY TABS
While lifting the plastic cap from the side indicated by the arrows, gently wiggle it left and right until the small metal tear tab snaps. This opens the seal correctly and exposes the rubber stopper without removing the entire aluminium ring.

IMPORTANTMETAL SEAL REMOVED
The gold metal seal should be lifted from the side indicated by the arrows, leaving the rubber stopper clearly visible. The opening should appear clean and unobstructed, with the metal seal removed evenly and without bending into the centre of the vial.

STEP 4:ADD BACTERIOSTATIC WATER
Insert the syringe needle into the bacteriostatic water vial and draw the required amount of liquid. Slowly inject the water into the peptide vial, allowing the liquid to run down the inner wall of the vial to help protect the peptide.

STEP 5:DISSOLVE THE PEPTIDE
Gently roll or spin the vial between your fingers until the peptide is completely dissolved. Do not shake the vial, as vigorous shaking may damage the peptide structure and reduce its stability.

STEP 6:MEASURE REQUIRED DOSE
Insert the syringe into the vial and draw the required dose through the rubber stopper. Store the mixed solution in a refrigerator and use it within 30 days after mixing.
